Dental bone grafting in India
Quick answer
Dental bone grafting rebuilds jaw bone so implants can be placed. Grafts may use your own bone, donor bone or synthetic material. The UHL NHS guide notes grafting can add 4 to 6 months to treatment.

At a glance
Bone shrinks after tooth loss. Without enough width or height, implants may not be possible.
Grafts are placed at extraction (socket preservation) or later to build the ridge.
How this approach differs
Grafting usually means an extra trip: graft first, wait 4 to 6 months, then implant placement, then the crown. Some cases combine graft and implant. Avoid pressure on the area and smoking.
